pic???

[skyeryder]

Some people have pics when they make a post in the top left corner of their msg, someone on here has a two-stroke cartoon pic looks like a R cylinder and a big pipe and all can anyone point me in the right direction of who that is or have a link to that cartoon pic, thanks

[troybilt]

Its called and animated gif, and its from the 2 stroke wikipedia page if its the one I'm thinking of...

[skyeryder]

right idea but this one is like a animated cartoon pic.. does that make sense, I looks like a pissed off cylinder with a big nasty two-stroke pipe coming out of it.

Troy I know your a busy man but did you ever look at the USA theme graphics, for my flat track quad.

[troybilt]

Guess I haven't seen that cartoon yet...

No I haven't yet. I didn't really know how serious you were.... I can look at them.

[troybilt]

These are the most recent ones I did for Velvetlinedcasket... he wanted a spider webbed theme..

That is gonna look awesome on his quad, hope goes with that and post some pics. If you ever give up engineering I think you've found your calling.

Troy those look great!

[troybilt]

Just playing around bud. Let me know what you want exactly. I thought it would be cool to have and old rustic "Old Glory" for a background... you won't hurt my feelings if you don't like it... LOL!! just something I had in my head that I wanted to try out, thought you might get a kick out of it.

I really like the top main piece, maybe a shade darker/brighter on the blue(b/c of my candy blue frame) I'm still trying to decide if the kicker area blends or matches the main section as good as I'd like.
What if the stripes are red like a flag and the jagged pieces are blue???? Thanks for doing this for me I haven't found anyone that would experiment with the R

[troybilt]

I'll play around with it some more when I get time... I'm out of town this weekend and back to work next week, but I'll see what I can do.

You can scrap the whole thing, I was just playing around. I saw something on TV that gave me an idea.. it was a Target commercial... haha..

[skyeryder]

That's fine it won't see the track til May anyways

[skyeryder]

Troy how did that Target idea come out???? Here soemthing close to what I'm looking for beside the one I want is more aggressive and has a pipe wrapped around it

[pdxbigfoot]

Is there anything you are NOT good at???
Always pushing the envelope. I really wish we lived closer as it would be fun to see what we could come up with.

[troybilt]

Thanks Jason, I'm still learning on this graphics stuff. Its fun to mess with gives me a chance to play around with ideas or designs in my head. I'm full of them...

If you need anything from me on the baddarse build you're working on let me know. I'd be glad to help.

Skyeryder,

I haven't worked on it much. I'll get back on it. I was trying to get the format figured out on velvets's graphics so we could get them printed. Still messing with that right now. I had an idea for a little brighter scheme.

[wild250rman]

hey troybilt was wondering if you could design a set of retro graphics for a 450. I am wanting to do an 88 look for my 05 450r. i dont really care for the look of the k and k set, to squared off looking and don't want any sponsor logos just the basic number plates and 450r on the front fender?

[troybilt]

Its possible if you can measure it up. I don't have a 450r or 450 plastic anymore...

[250Renvy]

Troy, what program are you working in?
